UNITED ST ALBERT ULYSSES MONTGOMERY,

PATFE or HATTIESBURG, ivrississrrrr;

TOBACCO I PIPE.

Application filed June 14,

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ALBERT U. MONTGOM- ERY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hattiesburg, in the county of Forrest and State of Mississippi, have invented a new and useful Tobacco Pipe, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to tobacco users appliances, and more particularly to pipes, the primary object of the invention being to provide a pipe that will insure a cool sweet smoke, eliminating any possibility of the user burning his tongue by the direct impingement of the smoke on the tongue.

Another important object of the inven tion is to provide a pipe that may be readily and easily cleaned, the parts thereof being constructed to permit of the disassembling of the pipe to facilitate the cleaning thereof.

A still further object of the invention is to provide a removable auxiliary bowl, which may be readily removed and replaced when the same becomes broken or otherwise rendered inoperative.

With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described, and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.

Referring to the drawing:

Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view through a pipe constructed in accordance with the invention.

Figure 2 is a side elevational view of the bowl or body portion of the pipe.

Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on 3-3 of Figure 1.

Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on line 4:4 of Figure 1.

Referring to the drawing in detail, the reference character 5 designates the body portion or the bowl, which includes abowl 6 and a stem 7, the bowl and stem being of the conventional types, the stem being however in the present showing, formed integral with the bowl.

A spirally formed groove 8 is shown as extending around the bowl 5, which groove communicates with a relatively large circular groove 9 formed at a point adjacent to the bowl 5, the latter groove communicating line 1923. Serial No. 645,375.

with the bore 10 of the stem 7, so that smoke drawn into the groove, may be drawn through the stem to the mouth of the user. The bowl 5 is hollowed, in the usual manner and is designed to receive the auxiliary bowl 11 which may be formed of clay or other suitable material which is of a length to extend an appreciable distance within the bowl 6 and of a diameter to lie in spaced relation with the inner wall of the bowl providing an air space. As shown, this auxiliary bowl is formed with openings 12 to permit air to enter the space between the inner wall of the bowl 6 and auxiliary bowl, it being understood that the space or com partment formed around the inner bowl is in communication with the groove 8 through the opening 13 formed at the upper end of the bowl 6.

The bowl 6, as well as the portion of the stem 7 is encased by the casing 14, formed preferably of aluminum and constructed to closely engage the bowl, providing a wall for the grooves 8 and 9 to insure against the air drawn into the grooves from leaking past the grooves.

The auxiliary bowl 11 is formed with a laterally extending flange 15 adapted to overlie the upper edge of the bowl 6, the an nular flange 16 that depends from the flange 15 contacting with the upper edge of the easing 14 to hold the same into close engage ment with the upper portion of the bowl 6 and insure an air-tight connection between the casing 14, bowl 6 and auxiliary bowl 11.

From the foregoing it will be obvious that due to this construction, the smoke drawn into the space between the bowls 6 and 11, will pass upwardly and into the upper portion of the spiral groove from where the same passes along the spiral groove and into the groove 9. It follows that the smoke now passes through the bore 10 and into the mouth of the user.

As the smoke passes through the spiral groove it will be noted that the smoke will be cooled and the nicotine contained in the smoke will be deposited in the groove prior to its entrance to the mouth-piece of the pipe insuring a cool smoke.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is A pipe comprising a bowl and a stem portion formed integral therewith, said bowl having a wall dividing the bowl from the stem portion, said bowl having a spirally formed groove disposed exteriorly thereof and terminating in a relatively large groove exteriorly of the stem, said stem having a bore extending throughout the length thereof and communicating With the relatively large groove, an auxiliary bowl in the first mentioned bowl, and a casing fitted around the first mentioned bowl to cover the spirally formed groove.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing 10 as my own, I have hereto aflixed my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.

ALBERT ULYSSES MONTGOMERY.
